Cars We Love: Jonathan Elfalan's Picks

Forget about rationality; these cars steal our hearts.

To me, love for a car means it inspires you in some way and will always make your pulse race. The Audi UrQuattro, all by itself, is exciting to look at, but I'll never forget watching rally footage of Walter Röhrl behind the wheel dominating in the WRC—which also led me to fall in love with the sport of rallying. The BMW Z3 M Coupe is a polarizing design. The fact that others see it as oddly disproportionate makes it even more irresistible to my eyes, not to mention the BMW M engineers who were the driving force behind shoving a powerful inline-6 into a tiny coupe. Until you've seen the inside of a modern Ferrari, you'll never know the craftsmanship that goes into the 458 Italia, one of the raciest yet easiest-to-drive chassis on the road.
